KELLEY STOLTZ
"IF YOU DON'T KNOW ME, BUY NOW" LP/CD
San Francisco psych-pop legend, Kelley Stoltz, returns with his 19th full‑length release, If You Don’t Know Me, Buy Now - a collection that continues his long exploration of hook‑laden psych‑pop, introspective lyrics, and richly textured arrangements that both honor his influences and push his sound forward, reinforcing his status as one of the most prolific and singular voices in underground rock.
Often compared to everyone from Alex Chilton to Robin Hitchcock to Nick Lowe to Martin Newell - Stoltz is a pop chameleon. His constant reshuffling of the deck finds him in a constant flux of creativity. If You Don’t Know Me… weaves through his brand of sardonic and playful humor and vulnerable, introspective late night musings.
Available from Dandy Boy Records (US) and Agitated Records (UK)

Sweet Opiate is the second single from Yea-Ming and The Rumours' forthcoming album - Residue
"This song also came out of an experimentation in rhythm. I originally wanted this song to have a hypnotic and groovy lounge-y feel a la Stereolab. I think what came out of it sounds more like a disco-y St. Etienne or The Cardigans who I also love. That is the fun in experimentation!
I was really afraid to bring this song to the rest of the band, mostly because of the subject matter and the 180 degree shift in sound, but Luke was more than familiar with the drumbeat, and Eóin and Rob both knew exactly how to supplement the song. I was literally laughing in delight in the studio at how quickly they melded into the sound."
